The McWhorter Volunteer Fire Department in London, CT, focused on Mayday training during Safety Stand Down. This included making sure members understand when, why, and how to call a Mayday, and what action should be in place when the Mayday is called. Members were also trained on self-rescues. In addition, the department is working on developing and enhancing guidelines for when the Mayday is called by dispatch.
